Also doing well – in spite of itself – was the sci-fi action tale “Aeon Flux,” which finished in second place. Not screened for, the flopperoo starring Oscar-winner Charlize Theron still managed to make a respectable $13.1 million.

The Johnny Cash biopic “Walk the Line” dropped one notch to No. 3, earning $10 million, to bring its three-week total to $68.8 million.

And in fourth place was the family comedy “Yours, Mine and Ours.” It raked in $8.4 million in its second weekend, for a total of $34.6 million.
